At first I thought he was the Sikh who does the Vulcan greeting, but then I noticed the one white guy and thought "No, that's him!".

I love these kind of projects. I'd love it even more if it was open source.

Preservation of the software is the most important thing and I'm glad the game pirates are very fastidious about it, but preservation of hardware like this is - if not as important - at least as fascinating!

And still, I won't buy one. I doubt I'll ever earn enough money to make retro game collecting feasible, so I'll stick with collection retro game controllers and connecting them to PCs for faithful emulation ;)

Seriously. I bought The Legend of Zelda (the original one) 10 years ago for <10 Euros. Now it's over 100! And that's a super common game (I assume)!

I saw it in theater when it came out (twice), and then later again a few years back.

Except in the latter case they clearly played it from DVD, interlaced even! At first I was like "I can't watch this!" but after 3 minutes I was so captivated I didn't even notice anymore!

From the article you linked:

> the first compiler for it was implemented in 1975

Honestly, looking at the screenshots I don't even know what's going on.

It's great to see the pasta-making in action, but damn, that guy is annoying.

Holy shit, that looks amazing.

Almost make me want to exchange my O2 for a clear CMOY :D

Thing is, I'm poor, and it was roughly 3x the cost of the discounted ticket I usually use.

At minimum wage I would have paid about a day's salary, and thus I "boycotted" it.

Apparently there is ONE theater in the world (in California of course!) that shows it and it's REALLY GOOD.

EDIT: The one floating around the internet seems to be a fan cut. I'm curious how it holds up to the actual thing.

That's what I heard.

Also the the Roadshow cut of Hateful Eight. That was shown in more places. I could have seen it, but they asked for an arm and a leg, and I need those!

I'm assuming they reencoded it to something more efficient than mjpeg2000 (no idea what the "standard" pirate codec for 4k is).

EDIT: According to another comment it's H264.

And they all do what you, The Nerd, say. Prisoners are known to be well-behaved and respect Nerds! /s

I am so bad at this. Also, apparently I don't know the first thing about tennis.

That's cool. Are they integrated well?

Yes, this my major complaint, too.

I have 3 Android devices and can use this only on the one that has a SIM card? And even if the others had SIM cards, they'd be on different accounts? WTF.
